Critical WordPress update 3.0.4 available
Advertisement
Matt Mullenweg has written a new post declaring the latest update of WordPress critical and highly recommending everyone update immediately.
From the post:
Version 3.0.4 of WordPress, available immediately through the update page in your dashboard or for download here, is a very important update to apply to your sites as soon as possible because it fixes a core security bug in our HTML sanitation library, called KSES. I would rate this release as “critical.”
I realize an update during the holidays is no fun, but this one is worth putting down the eggnog for. In the spirit of the holidays, consider helping your friends as well.
If you are a security researcher, we’d appreciate you taking a look over this changeset as well to review our update.
